OVER 1,100 RESIDENTIAL PROPERTY SALES REGISTERED IN MALTA DURING JUNE

Malta’s residential property market recorded more than 1,100 final deeds of sale during June 2026, according to new data published by the National Statistics Office (NSO).

A total of 1,117 final deeds of sale relating to residential properties were registered during the month, representing an 11.7% increase compared to June 2025. The total value of these transactions reached €360.8 million, marking a rise of 19.5% over the same period last year.

The latest figures come amid continued pressure on Malta’s housing market, where rising property prices have made affordability a growing challenge for buyers.

Median apartment prices currently stand at around €414,000–€417,000, while properties with development potential often begin at approximately €900,000.

The majority of final deeds involved individual buyers, with 997 transactions (89.3%) linked to households. These purchases accounted for €261.5 million, or 72.5% of the total value recorded.

The highest number of final property sales were registered in Birkirkara (73), followed by San Pawl il-Baħar (70) and Mosta (54).

Across the completed transactions, 1,240 properties changed ownership, with apartments representing the largest share at 400 units (32.3%), followed by garages at 292 units (23.5%).

Meanwhile, 1,026 promise of sale agreements (konvenji) were registered in June, a decrease of 7.2% compared to the same month in 2025. However, the total value of these agreements increased by 10.8%, reaching €447.9 million.

Individual buyers accounted for 889 promise of sale agreements, representing 86.6% of the total.

The highest number of promise of sale agreements was recorded in San Pawl il-Baħar (85), followed by Birkirkara (50) and Ħaż-Żabbar (45).

The figures are based on residential property transactions registered with the Malta Tax and Customs Administration and may be subject to updates as source data is revised.
